Yes. I want a (standing) desk next to a window that actually opens, like I have at home. When it's ~70 degrees with a gentle breeze outside (as it is today), being forced to breathe the recycled air of the office building's HVAC system is torture.

I sit inside a large cube farm in an office building all day, breathing recycled air and having the life-force drained from my body via overhead fluorescent lighting. It's not unusual for me to feel mildly ill after a few hours at my desk -- and to feel instantly better as soon as I emerge from the building at the end of the day (and in this particular facility, stepping outside frequently is not practicable (at my previous job I could at least go for a walk during lunch)).

I spent about 2 years trying to get a work-from-home job (countless interviews, etc.) but no luck. I live a few blocks from the beach and I fantasize about small things, like being able to step outside for 5 minutes to clear my head and enjoy the sea breeze, or stepping into my kitchen to get a cup of coffee (because I refuse to join the office 'coffee club' which costs money -- hell, we also have a pay-to-play 'water club' if you want to enjoy filtered water from the water cooler -- eff you, I'll drink the room-temperature tap water before I submit to that crap). But alas, it is not to be.
